When I rose, , the crowd was confused because they thought I was dead," "There was great sorrow"

“Watching the reports over the last few days many people say it was a providential moment. It probably was. When I rose, surrounded by Secret Service, the crowd was confused because they thought I was dead,” Trump continued.

“There was great sorrow. I could see that on their faces as I looked out. They do not know that I was looking out they thought it was over. But I see it I wanted to do something to that them know that I was OK. I raised my right arm, looked at the thousands and thousands of people that were breathlessly waiting and started shouting, ‘Fight! Fight! Fight!’”

The unifying message stopped there, with the 2024 Republican nominee quickly pivoting back to a long list of his greatest hits from the campaign trail—starting with an odd promise to “end the electric vehicle mandate,” despite the fact there is none.

Then there was great rejoicing. The King has risen from the dead! Glory, glory hallelujah, his truth is marching on!

Now back to the disjointed lies of the promises he will do, in 2 weeks, trust me. My opponent only signed 5 bills to help people! I will sign dozens, trust me. A guy said to me, Sir you are remarkable, you rose from the dead.
Then more music,I am proud to be an American,at least I know I’m free!
Unless the maggots take over!

I did the biggliest, bestist resurrection ever resurrected. 10 SECONDS. 10 Seconds. That's all it took me.

People are saying, did ya see that? I'd like to see Sleepy Joe resurrect like that. Rudy was trying to do one at the convention but it was a fake. His really had somethin' to do with Chevas Re.... What was the name of the stuff with the big boat on it? Maybe Rudi was drinking that. Anyway, people tell me, my resurrection was better than Rudy's.

Everybody saw mine. It was on tv. Rudy's was on tv too but people only laughed at Rudy. People are saying it was the best resurrection ever. Vladdi called me right after and asked if I was 0k. He saw it and said it was the best resurrection since his video of me with my Little Soldier resurrectiing after the yellow sprinkle shower. I told him I thought he got rid of that video but he said it might come in handy later. ..Said was a great resurrection and it disproves Stormy's story about the Little Soldier being really little. So I told him maybe he should keep it.

So that's enough about you. Lets talk about me."

Narcissists have an over inflated sense of self.

And re-write any event to make themselves the star, the martyr, the victim.
The smartest, best person in the world.

Events are stories in their head and they are the stars.
We are just props.

But his constant referencing himself to deity/magical like figures is crossing over into psychosis.

In Revelation 13:1–10, the first beast (the Antichrist) rises "out of the sea" and is given authority and power by the dragon. It is the image of this beast that persecutes God's people in the 2nd part of Revelation 13, and it is the name of this beast that is put on the foreheads of his followers (Rev 13:16-17).

The trump hats are on all their foreheads.

This was one of my focuses as a teenager in the 90s with no access to a TV, video games and the internet.

To summarize, reading the prophecies books, and mapping out the different accounts, there are two accounts in Revelations about end times from different points of view. Same as the two creations in Genesis, odd I know. If you take out the inconsistencies you will find some similarities in the Regan assassination attempt more than anything.

Hundreds of thousands of Americans know or are related to people who have had children gunned down by shooters. The results are complete bodies blown apart…unrecognizable! We all saw the dribble of blood on his ear! Now if his head were separated from his body there would have been reason for concern. I hope he can get over this soon just as he instructs us to do!

30. 'RNC Ends on High Note as Ghost of Jeffrey Epstein Endorses Trump'
Fri Jul 19, 2024, 07:39 AM
Jul 2024

MILWAUKEE (The Borowitz Report)—Attendees at the Republican National Convention gave a thunderous ovation to the ghost of Jeffrey Epstein after he made a surprise appearance Thursday night to endorse Donald J. Trump.

“I know Donald Trump better than I know just about anybody,” the spectral Epstein told the MAGA faithful. “Check my phone logs. There’s no one I talked to more.”

Visibly emotional, Epstein said he had never endorsed a presidential candidate before but was making an exception for Trump “because we were so close.”

“Donald Trump shares my vision, my values, my core beliefs,” he said. “I stand before you and the American people to deliver this message: A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for Jeffrey Epstein!”

The MAGA crowd roared their approval of Epstein, who got the warmest reception of the many felons who spoke at the RNC.

Trump would be making jokes about the shooter needing more target practice. Everyone in the
convention would be mocking Biden by wearing a giant bandage on their head.
